Chapter 2261 Resolutely reject Morgan's request

As soon as Mr. Morgan sat down, someone who looked like an assistant beside him whispered something to him.

While listening, Mr. Morgan turned his head to look at Niu Xiaoqiang.

After the assistant finished speaking, Mr. Morgan actually stood up and came to Niu Xiaoqiang and the other three, and greeted them with a smile: "Hello, three, I didn't expect to meet you here. It's a pleasure to meet you."

As the saying goes, you don't hit a smiling person with your hand. Although the three of them were not very happy to have any interaction with Morgan, since he came over to say hello, the three of them couldn't help but respond.

Niu Xiaoqiang immediately stood up, smiled and shook hands with Morgan to say hello.Luo Hua and Barbara also stood up and greeted each other.

After the two parties greeted each other, Morgan sat next to Barbara. He asked casually, "Miss Barbara, I heard that Grandma Walker is going to make a big move. Is that true?"

As soon as Niu Xiaoqiang heard it, he knew that Morgan was here to sniff out the news. Grandma Walker was planning to set up a private bank in New York to enter the financial industry. This would definitely violate the interests of the Morgan family. Today, I happened to meet Barbara, so Mr. Morgan naturally wanted to inquire. Let's look at the situation.

Barbara was also clear in her heart. She didn't hide it, and nodded with a smile: "My grandma does have this idea, and she is currently doing preliminary preparations."

Mr. Morgan snorted, and made a request that surprised Barbara: "We also want to participate, but I don't know if Grandma Walker will agree?"

Barbara was slightly taken aback, and after thinking for a moment, she said, "This is a good thing. Of course my grandma will agree. I wonder how much you want to invest?"

Mr. Morgan smiled frankly: "We can spend 500 billion US dollars to invest in this bank. If it is not enough, we can pay more. The shares can be divided according to the proportion of everyone's investment. This should not be too much, right?"

This is obviously to use money to suppress people. The Morgan family has very abundant cash flow, and 500 billion US dollars can be easily withdrawn, but other families may not have such boldness.

For example, the Walker family probably couldn't come up with so much cash, and the Bu family is also tough. It is estimated that only the Rockefeller family can match the aggressiveness of the Morgan family.

This bank divides its rights and interests according to the shareholding system, and the shares must be calculated according to the proportion of each party's capital contribution.Mr. Morgan said this because he wanted to disgust Grandma Walker, and secondly, he wanted to become the major shareholder of the bank and restrain the cloth family from penetrating the financial industry.

After thinking about the joints, Barbara was not polite at all, and replied with a smile: "Mr. Morgan is joking, if you are really willing to spend so much money as a shareholder, why not use this money to set up a new company?" As for a wholly-owned bank, it will only make more money this way, so there is no need to seek cooperation with us.”

Barbara is deliberately running on Morgan, her hidden meaning is only this: Are you scared?Otherwise why spend so much money to take a stake in this bank?Since you are so rich, why do you need to join in?Wouldn't it be better for everyone to do their own business?

When Mr. Morgan heard this, he smiled without changing his expression: "If you are a sole proprietorship, you will bear a lot of risks. If you can do business with everyone, the risks can be shared by everyone. Miss Barbara will not Understand this truth?"

Barbara smiled slightly, and said tit-for-tat: "Mr. Morgan doesn't seem to be very optimistic about the banking industry. Mr. Hu said that you are not very optimistic about this private bank. You are ready to share the risk with others before starting business. Even if you do Business needs to be cautious, but are you a little too cautious?"

Barbara has pointed out Morgan's thoughts, implying that Morgan is purely here to make trouble, and has no idea of ​​cooperating to make money at all.

Although she said it very happily, she was worried in her heart: The Morgan family is really domineering, and they just spent 500 billion US dollars just to suppress their competitors. This shows that their strength is definitely stronger than the rumors. , I don’t know if it’s right for grandma to do this?

Morgan laughed: "Miss Barbara is right, I shouldn't be too cautious, otherwise, I will take out 500 billion US dollars to invest in this bank, and I will not care about profits or losses. This is the head office. Bar?"

Barbara was in a dilemma. She didn't know whether to refuse or accept.The funds involved in this private bank are as high as hundreds of billions of dollars. Barbara is not currently at the helm of the family. She has neither the corresponding power nor the corresponding courage to agree to Morgan's request.

Barbara cast her eyes on Niu Xiaoqiang involuntarily, wanting to see Niu Xiaoqiang's attitude.

Niu Xiaoqiang shook his head slightly, signaling for Barbara to refuse.

Although Barbara didn't know what Niu Xiaoqiang was thinking, she still made a decision immediately out of trust in Niu Xiaoqiang: "I would like to ask Mr. Morgan to forgive me, after all, this is an investment of tens of billions of dollars. I think it's best for you to avoid talking with my grandma, as for me, I don't have the power to make a decision yet, even if I agree to your request now, I'm afraid I can't count."

Mr. Morgan was not angry either, and nodded with a smile: "In this case, then I will take some time to have an interview with Grandma Walker. Let's chat slowly. Let's have a drink together when we have a chance."

Niu Xiaoqiang and the others nodded one after another, and got up to send Morgan off.

After Morgan left, Barbara asked, "Niu Xiaoqiang, why did you ask me to reject him just now?"

Niu Xiaoqiang chuckled: "The other party obviously has bad intentions. If you allow him to buy shares, it is tantamount to leading wolves into the house, so you must firmly reject his request."

Knowing that the Bu family and the Morgan family are not on the same line, Luo Hua hesitated: "Even if the other party pays 500 billion U.S. dollars, it is impossible to obtain a controlling stake in this bank. In that case, what do you have to worry about?" ?”

Niu Xiaoqiang explained with a smile: "You don't know much about the banking industry. Listen to me and you can understand the stakes. Even if the Morgan family can't get a controlling stake in the bank, as long as they become the major shareholder , They can secretly engage in small tricks, as we all know, banks make profits through lending, no matter which bank it is, the most fearful things are the following two points, the first is bad debts."

"Bad debts refer to loans that cannot be repaid. If the amount of bad debts is too large, the bank will go bankrupt. If I were Mr. Morgan, I could arrange many people to borrow money, and then through some operations, let these people borrow Outgoing loans become notional bad debts."
